Chapter Seventy-Eight: Gossip
After the meal, everyone gathered around the old lady and the town prince and the eldest lady who came out to have dinner with everyone every Friday.
The old lady also mentioned two sentences of the wedding banquet of the Duke of Wei, and told her granddaughters with a smile: "It's summer, wear new clothes, flowers, skirts, bright jewelry, and dress up better." ”
The fourth lady smiled proudly, "Grandmother, don't worry, the dresses have been delivered today, and they are all very good-looking." The jewelry with the clothes should also be sent to Ming'er, and when the time comes, please ask your grandmother to palm your eyes. "She now follows the butler, and knows better than anyone else about her clothes and jewelry.
Hui Lan smiled and agreed, "Yes, the fourth sister specially tried it on, and I was shocked when I saw it." Today, I realized that the so-called Gu shooting immortals is not an exaggeration, isn't this an exaggeration! ”
Everyone who was familiar with Si Niangzi's out-of-the-box temperament laughed when they heard this, and San Langjun laughed out loud.
The fourth lady originally blushed, and was about to spit on Huilan who was suspected of making fun of her. San Langjun smiled and immediately diverted the flames of war, and the fourth lady glared at the third cousin, who was only half a year older than her.
Zhen Guogong looked at his little daughter and smiled with relief, "Awan has grown up!" Turning his head to look at the eldest lady sitting next to him, he reached out and patted her hand gently, "Madame has worked hard!" ”
The eldest lady had mixed feelings when she heard this, and she almost didn't cry speechlessly. Reluctantly held back, lowered his head slightly and said, "What did the master say, I am not angry, and the old lady worries a lot inside and outside the family." The second brother and younger siblings are also affected, where can I call it hard. ”
Hearing this, Zhenguo Gong smiled and flattered the old lady a few words, and praised the old lady with a smile. Pointing at him and scolding with a smile, "The second husband and wife are filial, but your daughter-in-law is also a filial piety, and she puts my wife in her head in everything, so she said some humble words." You are such an adult, and you are also the only commander of the army outside, and you are so partial to listening and believing at home, you should let the saint and the soldiers under your command see your confused appearance! ”
"No matter how capable a son is, he is also a mother's son. I have not been filial to my mother for a long time, and I am really happy to be able to smile at my mother today. That's why he was seen as mediocre and incompetent by the saints, and it didn't hurt to be there. The mother's wisdom and courage are the best known to the son, and there is no longer any truth in the words of the lady who can't tell the difference. Not to mention the wife, the son is at the border, thinking that there is a mother at home, so that he can feel at ease. ”
The wrinkles of the old lady's smile were stretched, and she shook her head and said nothing.
Zhen Guogong smiled again and bowed his hand to the second old man and his wife, "I am away all the year round, and your sister-in-law is not in good health, my mother is thanks to your filial piety, and I have thanked my brother and sister here for my brother." ”
The second old man and his wife hurriedly got up and returned the salute, and even said seriously.
Zhen Guogong said a few more words, and he praised them for their filial piety, the elderly in the family are healthy, the family affairs are smooth, and they have to work hard. The second old man and his wife are still modest, but their expressions are more kind.
Hui Lan couldn't help but sigh with emotion that the Zhenguo Guild spoke, and the eldest lady's words meant that her uncle and aunt were worried about family affairs, and the male protagonist was outside and the female protagonist was inside. Although he said that he was grateful, he thought about it and that the town's mansion was the private property of the big house, and the second room meant helping the couple to take care of it. As a result, Zhen Guogong only said that they worked hard and did their filial piety, instead of talking about family affairs, and suddenly passed the eldest lady's language illness.
The eldest lady also heard the inconsistencies in her mother's words, but she was a junior, so it was difficult to interject. Seeing that my grandmother and father had diverted the conversation together, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She took the tea and sipped it slowly, thinking about it in her heart.
The eldest lady has been in poor health in recent years, and in order to take care of her children, especially the only son, the family affairs have slowly been lifted. Since her husband returned to Beijing, she has completely forgotten about family affairs in order to take care of her husband. Since the eldest lady was assigned to marry, the eldest lady's attention was almost occupied by her husband's son and youngest daughter, and she couldn't care about anything else. But when he speaks and acts, something goes wrong, and he is aimed at the second room, and his temper is not as kind as in previous years.
The eldest lady was restricted from getting along with her family because of the royal rules. I only found out recently, and I was still a little worried, thinking about whether to explain to my grandmother and father. lest the eldest lady become even worse, hurt the dignity of the second room, and ruin the affection. When she saw it today, she was relieved. With her grandmother and father at home, she doesn't have to worry.
If Huilan knew the eldest lady's thoughts, and then calculated the eldest lady's age, wouldn't she just open her mouth. The eldest lady is in her early forties, and her husband was not around all the year round, so what is the disharmony, hormonal disorders, heavy family affairs, and children have to worry, and menopause. To say that the eldest lady has a good mentality, she has been married to her husband for 20 years, and she has been married for 18 years, and she has not been perverted. There is an occasional family leave, and I have three babies when I see the stitches, and the heir has also been born, which is really a bit of a bullish attribute!
As for the explicit words of the eldest lady, Huilan starts from the egoism of modern people, which is really nothing. She was right, this was indeed the Zhenguo Mansion. But the old lady is still there, and this is also the home of my uncle, aunt, second cousin, and third cousin. Even if you want to mention the separation, you have to go to the old lady to talk about it. But thinking about the symptoms of menopause, Huilan felt understandable. However, considering her identity, Hui Lan decided to stay away from the eldest lady in the future and become cannon fodder in the province.
The adults are talking, and the juniors are talking about themselves. Huilan was gossiping with the five ladies next to her, the two brothers were talking about their boys, and Liulang's eyes lit up as they listened.
The eldest lady looked at the fourth lady who was excited because she was praised by her father and teased, "More than thirteen years old, cardamom tips in early February." I didn't see it at a glance, but the fourth sister has also grown up. ”
The fourth lady's face turned red, she had seen it, and the relatives and elders had also said this about the eldest lady before, and after saying this, she took over the in-laws' family or something. She hurriedly said, "Big sister, let's be busy with my own big things first, I'm still young!" ”
The eldest lady was a little surprised when she heard this, she thought that this sister had not yet opened her mind. Hearing this, the meaning was not right, so he lowered his voice and said deliberately, "Someone used to joke, but that's not what they said!" ”
The fourth lady blushed and ignored her, and turned her head to talk to Huilan and them.
The eldest lady's smile was unfathomable, and she decided to take advantage of the opportunity to go to her uncle's house to drink the wedding wine.
Speaking of which, this is also the last banquet that the eldest lady will attend as the eldest lady of the Gu family. Of course, the banquet is not simple, otherwise it is not worth the big lady to go out, and it is not worthy of being delivered to her for the last time. It was the eldest son of her uncle's family, the son of the Duke of Wei.
Huilan and Wu Niangzi are also talking about new dresses, how can a little girl not like beautiful skirts, and the low-key Wu Niangzi is no exception. The two chatted happily, explained the color of their clothes to each other, and exchanged jewelry sachets to match. They are all little ladies cultivated in aristocratic families, and no matter how biased the aesthetics are, they can't deviate from it. After discussion, the two have already finalized what to match, and said that Ming'er will get together to try it on.
Then the four ladies came over and listened to the tail. Immediately, the enthusiasm was high, and there was a strong desire to join. There are many people and it is eye-catching, and of course the two agreed happily. Then they discussed the accessories of the fourth lady and Xiao Qi together, and they thought very beautifully.
Xiao Qi's mind was not on the beautiful clothes, and he listened to the excitement with a smile. The eldest lady was holding the tea and listening to it, laughing with great satisfaction, and there was a sense of relief and pleasure in cultivation.
